Review title of James JDoesn't work with Hardwired computers

Might work great except you can't cast a computer without a wireless adapter. For users who want to run their PC from their Xbox One without going over wifi just don't download it. It won't work.

Review title of BryantGreat idea, but...

Connects just fine, but the screen lags about 15 seconds behind any controller click. Definitely not able to play a game with this connection.

Review title of RobertDoesen't support wired LAN

There is no way to connect to this Xbox One app from Windows 10 Home. You can click on "Duplicate Screen", but there is no settings to where to send the screen.
This doesen't work when i unplugged Xbox One and used WIFI instead either.
Win 10 Home with all updates is not supported and same for wired lan which doesen't make sense as it's normally the best option.
DXDiag says Miracast is enabled on my PC. Windows 10 Connect says PC does NOT support Miracast..That's weird.

Review title of VictorNo way to connect Windows 10 PC to Xbox

Been trying to set up my xbox one x with my windows 10 PC for over an hour, can't figure out how to connect it. At the very least, there should be a small guide on how to connect it all.

Review title of tenzinGames don't work

After restarting my laptop, hitting win + p, then starting the Xbox app, the Bluetooth was able to connect. It basically doesn't work for games though! So glitchy! Some games won't even load. Also, most of the buttons on the Xbox controller don't even do anything gamewise?!?! Da *** am I missing

Review title of DoseReally wanted this to work! 🤣

Cant find Xbox from project menu in windows. Tried clearing network cache, reboots and tried searching for it under wireless display and docks with no joy. I've even tried reinstall wireless drivers. I can find my roku and other devices without issue, all of which are further away.
I really wanted this to work but there is nothing on the forums and very little in terms of troubleshoting guides.
